This week was exceptional for member missionary work here in
the Sangre Grande Ward in the beautiful land of Trinidad!
On Tuesday we had a great district meeting by Elder
Shariatmadari about companionship unity and why we need to be unified and
related it to how radio antennas must be in tune in order to pick up the
channel of the spirit clearly! It was sweet! Then we were able to take a member
named Brother Bisnath out with us the entire day! It was so cool! We taught a
super cool woman named Anna about the Book of Moromon! She loves it and is
super excited to learn more! We also had a sweet lesson with a guy named Barry
and his wife Sandra! They are super cool and have been searching for the truth
and accepted the 11th of July to be baptized! It was super cool!
On Wednesday we spent a good chunk of the morning at the DMV
so that I could take my test to get my Drivers license and I passed but their
card printing machine was down so we had to go back on Friday too. But we
had a sweet lesson with the Samaroo family about fasting with them on fast
Sunday which went really well because we were able to fast with them for a
purpose that they came up with!
On Thursday we helped run a race in the morning by passing
out water which was sweet and then weekly planned and had a great lesson with a
woman named Narasha who is mostly deaf! It was great to testify to her of the
Book of Mormon using little words. It is great to feel the spirit so
strong!
On Friday we had to go back to the DMV to get my license
paid for and printed which took a few hours and then after lunch we had a great
lesson watching some animated Book of Mormon videos with some kids who had read
it in the Book of Mormon and we watched it with them! It was sweet to be able
to help them understand them in cartoon form and still pull the doctrine out of
the stories! It was great!
On Saturday we went and did some service for one of the
families that we are fasting with, we moved a bunch of dirt for her from her
front yard to her back yard and then she fed us some sweet shepherds pie to
help us start our fast. It was sweet! Then we had a super successful group
meeting with a bunch of members who live out in the bushy part of Grande so
they don't get out to church too much so we go out and help bring them the
spirit as much as possible, but we do it once a week and it was super sweet to
have them all grouped together!
On Sunday we had a great testimony meeting and got fed twice
after church!
It was a great week with not a single lesson without
members! I know I skipped a bunch of stuff but I am out of time! Sorry!
Love you tons! Have a great week!
